My Magic Tools Are Selling Too Well - My Magic Tools Are Selling Too Well chapter 44

44 – Moonlight night (1)

Academy special mission, exploration of the dark red gate.

This was eventually revealed to be the atrocities of Professor Bluecliffe, and the party members involved were called here and there for investigation.

As an undergraduate, I was no exception.

Including the investigator who came out of the investigation as a special thanks from the imperial family, the Wellington president who leads the academy, the vice-president Anisma, and the dean of Opert, who is in charge of the alchemy department.

People from various positions did oral research on me, and within the academy I had to write and submit my own report.

In a way, I was also a victim, so it was a bit annoying, but it was unavoidable for the correct investigation and accurate judgment.

Now, a week has passed since then.

The incident was settled to some extent, and the atmosphere of the academy, which had been cluttered, was gradually returning to its previous appearance.

Of course, since I had just watched Delia’s gloomy appearance, I wasn’t in a good mood.

Going through a series of events, I thought that I was just a child with a lot of tears.

I thought he was shy because of his quiet personality.

But even when I heard the story of morphine, or when I asked the reason in the carriage.

It was to endure the sadness by repeating the pain to the extent that it was difficult to bear.

I was overly shy because I didn’t trust people.

The cruel reality of Delia losing her mother to the demons and losing her father to the demons again… It was very sad.

The disposition of Professor Bluecliffe, who is still under investigation, has not been decided, but he will probably not be able to escape a heavy sentence for such a thing.

While holding on to the complex mind in which feelings of relief and regret coexist.

As always, I opened the door to the Academy Alchemy Shop.

Anyway, I have another job to do today.

“uh? Head of department? Professor Meline?”

However, an unexpected guest came to the alchemy shop.

A middle-aged man with a slightly bald top and a long beard that extends to his chest.

Dave Opert was the Dean of the Faculty of Alchemy.

Next to him was Professor Melaine, whom he had seen in the professor’s office in the morning.

Professor Meline, who had a hard expression on his face, nodded with a slightly relaxed expression when I greeted him.

“you. Even though it’s a 6 o’clock shift, isn’t it just right for you?”

Dean of Opert said, displaying his unique admonition skills.

Oops, I hurriedly checked the time.

There is only one minute left until the shift time of 6:00.

… It wasn’t too late, but this was gross from what I could see.

“sorry. I have a lot to think about today.”

In this case, it is best to hit the head right away.

Fortunately, the dean of Oppert didn’t seem to have any particular intentions.

“Annika, you might as well go inside. I have something to talk to the Sacher student.”

“Yes, yes.”

Annika hyung, who was looking at the counter for her shift, lowered her head and prepared for work.

Annika hyung is a researcher who is in charge of the afternoon shift on weekdays.

In the morning, he took classes at the research institute or helped the professor, worked at the alchemy shop in the afternoon, and did personal research in the evening.

A human group showing the daily life of a typical academy researcher.

My shift shifts overlapped on weekdays, so we became quite close.

Unlike other alchemists with closed personalities, he has a very lively personality.

He tends to be friendly with people he meets for the first time, and has no hesitation in asking academic questions to me, who is a lot younger than himself.

People who are good at alchemy are called seniors or something.

Even if he said that, alchemically, he’s quite a competent older brother.

Before the potion I made was released, I was the #1 sales seller of the [Low Stamina Potion] at the ＜Academy Alchemy Shop＞, so I’ve said it all.

Barring anything special, he was also a researcher with the highest probability of being selected as a professor within a few years.

Anika-san’s expression was now stained with embarrassment.

It must have been quite a struggle to face Dean of Opert, who was at the highest position in the department, and Professor Meline, who was famous for being as cold as ice in the department, at the same time.

Annika hyung hurriedly left the alchemy shop, looking at me with a pitiful expression.

‘cheer up… .’

He seemed to be saying that.

No, I’m fine… .

Besides, Professor Meline is quite a friendly person, contrary to what he thinks.

Before he could give that answer, Anika-hyung had already rushed out of the alchemy shop.

After he left, the dean of Opert, who was standing on one side of the alchemy shop, started talking.

“Looks like I’ll see you in a week. How have you been?”

“yes. Fortunately, thanks for your consideration.”

It wasn’t empty talk.

For a week after the incident, the faculty and academy did everything they could to take care of my mental state.

Except for essential tasks, Professor Melaine and I reduced the amount of work that we had to do to almost nothing, and even if we were absent from all the lectures we were taking in the name of a stabilization period, they were recognized as attendance.

Also, because of the need to take physical and psychological stability, he was continuously healed with divine magic for a week.

Honestly, ‘Is this something I have to do… I thought ‘?’, but considering that Professor Python almost died from poisoning, this was an acceptable decision.

In college, it was even more chaotic.

An incident is also an incident, but didn’t Professor Meline and I have a pretty big accident through this incident.

Inventing an innovative magic tool called [Anti-Venom].

An antidote that cures Venom Arcus as well as all special poisons that cannot be cured with normal antidotes.

Because of this ridiculous magic tool, the name of the ‘Imperial Academy’s Alchemy Faculty’ was promoted on the continent, so we would never have tolerated being hurt by the Faculty.

“As of today, the investigation and treatment of the professors involved in the Black and Red Gate incident have ended. You must have known, since you took class today… From today onwards, you should be able to carry out your teaching assistant duties normally and listen to the lectures.”

The investigation and treatment of all the professors have come to an end.

At those words, I opened my mouth thinking in case.

“Well, then… ”

“Welter Bluecliffe is still unfinished.”

It seemed like he knew who I was asking about.

Dean of Opert shook his head heavily.

“In the first place, since he was removed from his position as a professor, he cannot be considered a professor. The academy doesn’t hire imperial criminals as professors.”

Uncharacteristically, the words of the dean of Opert were bone-chilling.

In any case, Dean of Opert is also a veteran who went through the war four years ago as well as numerous demon wars before that.

Because of this, he also knows very well how dangerous the extremely venomous clan called ‘Venom Arcus’ is and how much harm it has done to the empire.

From his point of view, it was clear that Professor Bluecliffe, who poisoned many Imperial citizens just in the name of personal revenge, was an unforgivable sinner.

“Then what about the red and black gate? Anyway, isn’t it necessary to wipe out Venom Arcus?”

“hmm.”

Professor Meline, who was next to me, answered this question.

“The imperial family is already organizing a raid team to clear gates and dungeons. It’s safe to say that this is out of the academy’s jurisdiction. So Sacher, you too, forget about him.”

Are you organizing a raid now?

I couldn’t hide my uneasy feeling.

Since we invented [Anti-Venom], it is safe to say that Venom Arcus is now a demon completely conquered by mankind.

Excluding poison, they are demons with significantly lower combat power.

That’s why, as Professor Bluecliffe said before, there was no big problem even if the gate was closed again and returned to the Pandemonium through the medium of ‘eternal tombstone fragments’.

When it reappeared, it was something that could be wiped out at once.

But, if possible, I wanted to catch them all without missing them.

Professor Bluecliffe’s actions were wrong, but apart from that, he had a wish to wipe out Venom Arcus at this opportunity.

Anyway, I also had the experience of almost losing Karin noona because of them.

“Hmmm. Anyway, all the clutter has been sorted out, so now you just have to focus on your academy classes and research. The department has very high expectations of you. After spending a while outside, I made an outstanding magic tool called Anti-Venom. hahahaha.”

Dean of Opert gave a hearty laugh.

How did that risky gate exploration become a ‘temporary outing’?

It was not easy to follow this person’s tension.

“Professor Meline was almost in charge of the production. I was just there to help.”

“hmm. Sacher, to be exact, you made the skeleton. Even if it is your magic tool, it is not lacking.”

When I gave credit to Professor Melaine, she lifted me up to beat me.

under… .

Professor Lee is also quite good at dealing with his students.

When talking about [Anti-Venom], I never once put myself up there.

Seeing that, Dean of Opert clapped his hands and laughed.

“ha ha ha! The two geniuses are even very humble. Putting them together as professor and teaching assistant is probably the best thing I’ve done this year. hahahaha!”

“It’s an overstatement.”

“Hmmm. well, swearing In that sense, I was thinking of making a new proposal to you.”

Sure enough, there must have been another main topic.

Somehow, I thought that there was no way that Dean of Opert and Professor Meline would post together just by talking about the circumstances before and after the incident.

As I waited for an answer with a questioning look, Dean of Opert opened his mouth.

“Sacher Philippe, since you took charge of the academy pension shop, sales have increased significantly, and the funds within the faculty have become quite ample. Besides, I think that the talent you showed as an alchemist would be a waste for us to keep it as an alchemy shop worker. So, considering the contributions you have made to the Alchemy Shop, I’m trying to get you off the job at the Alchemy Shop… .”

“yes?”

I asked back like an idiot at the sudden suggestion.

Get me off work at the Alchemy Shop.

In other words, it was given to me on the condition of taking advantage of grades.

It meant that he did not have to work at the alchemy shop for 3 hours each weekday.

It’s already been 3 hours since I’ve already reduced 4 hours from 7 hours on weekdays…

You mean change it to 0 hours here?

It is a shocking condition because it is unconventional.

But it doesn’t seem like it’s over either.

Dean of Opert added an additional condition with a coy face.

“On the condition that you place at least 2 of your magic tools in the Alchemy Shop instead. How is it?”

“… call!”

At that secret suggestion, in my mouth.

Unknowingly, the name of the remote communication magic tool called [Call] popped out.

If you enter only two magic tools,

Free from the status of a pension shop worker?

I can’t stand this.
